I am told they will be coming thru Detroit sometime on Sunday, and are due to arrive in Bay City on Monday at noon. they are only doing between 5-7 knots, so that's why it is taking so long.

We are planning to fire a salute from our cannon at Fort Wayne as the ship passes, and somehow the media got wind of this, so there might be a Channel 4 van present.

Sunday is also the Detroit Fire Dept's Field Day at Fort Wayne, which i am not sure whether it is open to the public or not. they will probably have the Curtis Randolph fire boat present again like last year. sounds like a really cool photo op.
